Oy . Speaking of the leaf shield .. <A HREF="http://www.bobandgeorge.com/Archive/May01.html?6" TARGET=_blank>http://www.bobandgeorge.com/Archive/May01.html?6</A> <P>I have to agree on the buster being the best weapon , mainly because I sucked so much I never got to see any of the other weapons . Except in the first MM .. I personally think the RUsh Pogo-Stick-Thing was kinda useless , except in Dr Wily's stage . Even then it was useless , cause if anything hit you , you'd get smacked out of the air , and they normally hit you while you were jumping a pit .. plus , it didn't do any damage when you landed on something , and that I learned the hard way .<P>------------------I wish I could think of something witty .<p>[This message has been edited by Jammon (edited 05-08-2001).]

Worst Mega-Man weapon made?2 Words LEAD BUBBLE<P>The only reason Capcom decided to use this against Wily was because no one ever used it.<P>Crash Bomb also ranks up there...You could only get 5 shots tops with it.<P>Flash Man weapon would have been alrightif only you could turn it off.<P>My Favorite was Icemans from MM1. It froze most enimes (Including those ANNOYING pogo-things) and let you jump over or walk under them.

Hands down, the best weapon was the Metal Gears. Ever notice how the worst weapon from each game (ex: lead bubbles, snakes) are the ONLY thing that can hurt the last bosses? I can just see those jokers at Capcom sitting at a table, laughing their asses off as they came up with that idea.

Hm . What the hell did that lead bubble thing do , anyways ? All it did was roll on the ground . It didn't even go very far in the damn air ! And , you're right , the suck-arse weapons rock against the last bosses .. and anyone , other than me , get PO'd at the boss in Wily's Fortress that WAS weak against Crash Bombs ? <P>------------------I wish I could think of something witty .

I don't see why everyone is always dissing Rush. He flies, swims, and hops, constantly sacrificing his life to help the Blue Bomber give Wily the smackdown. I would have loved to used the RushMarine in some of the later stages... I can't tell you how many times I impailed myself on a submerged hanging spike. Rush, I salute you!<P>------------------ <A HREF="http://oldskooled.disflux.net" TARGET=_blank>http://oldskooled.disflux.net</A><P>I just upkeep the site... he does all the funny stuff

I've done an extensive study on all old school Mega Man weaponry (1-7, R&F, X & X3) and came up with something like this:<P>Favorite Weapons: Metal Blade(MM2)-So versatile, yet consumes so little energy! Flash Stopper(MM4)-Freezes enemies, leaving them open to a few rounds of plasma to the head Crash Bombs(MM2)-Okay, so they take a LOT of energy...but they're really powerful (try them on Flashman!!!) Atomic Fire(MM2)-I like fire and I love the fact that you can power this thing up!<P>Least Favorites: Time Stopper(MM2)-For one thing, you can't pause while it's in effect, for another thing, you can't attack otherwise!!! Power Stone(MM5)-Granted, it's a good weapon, but so ****** inaccurate!!! Slash Claw(MM7)-NOT ENOUGH RANGE!!!!<P>Interesting(to me, at least): Noise Crush(MM7)-The thing hits the wall, bounces back, hits you, and you can shoot a BIG one? Sounds good to me! Magic Card(R&F)-Grabbing stuff from afar is cool! The Ring Boomerang does it, too, but only on Game Boy.<P>Anyways, I'm sure that'll probably start a lot of protesting/riots/mobs chasing me, but that's my story and I'm stickin' to it.<P>------------------HyperUmbreon2001"The ONLY Hyped-Up Umbreon"

Hmmm..<P>For the Classic series, I'd have to say my favorite weapon was the Atomic Fire. Not only was it chargable, but many people fail to realize that it <B>KILLS WOOD MAN IN ONE F***ING HIT!</B> Though Metal Blades were amusing also with their ability to kill their owner in one shot as well.<P>My least favorite would have to be Guts Man's Super Arm. Most of the time it was completely worthless, and it was a pain in the rear to hit with.<P>As for the X series, my favorite would have to be the Rising Fire from MMX4. The fully charged form of the weapon makes X do this really cool looking spinning, flaming Shoryuken that takes off a FULL 2/3 of Sigma Death's life bar! The Firefly Laser from X5 was also a neat weapon in that it was a guided missile or the MMX equivalent to the Kamehameha (I actually don't like DBZ, believe it or not) wave.<P>My least favorite would have to be the W-Spiral from X5, because it was such a pain to use it against either boss that was weak against it.<P>As for Zero, my favorite would be the F-Splasher (Can't remember the Jap name) because with the Hyper Dash part (obtained from Crescent Grizzly), it becomes a mini Nova Strike.<P>And my least favorite of Zero's weapons/techniques from the X series would be Sotrm Owl's Tenkuuha. It was practically useless the entire game.<p>[This message has been edited by Technomagus (edited 08-10-2001).]
